First time to the track with new set up.
First time to the track with new set up.
Let me know what you think and feel free to give any advice. 13.72 @ 110mph. It sounds slow but the MPH looks O.K. but I was hopping for around 113MPH. I was running on street tires next time I'll use my Hoosers.

That mph is good for mid 12's with traction.
You spinning bad off the line?
With sticky tires you'll drop e.t. but also maybe alittle mph....
58MM TB is too big for a 350 motor..unless supercharging.
Cam specs?
How did you tune?
Type of tranny?
If your AUTO what is your stall/gears...that could be where your missing power is if they are not up to task.

yeah man that seems like a lot of work to get some 13.7s.......... Shoot man your scaring me, I'm hoping to get that or close with a couple of bolt ons and some computer work on a 194,000 mile stock L98.
FYI, I've got a buddy running 13.7s on a ZZ4 long block with headers exhaust and a stock 305 tpi setup w/ stock chip.

110 MPH is good for mid to low 12'S with traction, I would bet your 60 ft times were terrible.
------------------
1988 Formula 5L/5sp 3.45 gears, SLP cold air kit, MAS gutted, TPIS air foil, TPIS AFPR, MAC headers, Mac under drive pulleys, MAC cat back, Relocated MAT.
Best ET street tires 13.85
Best 60 FT street tires 1.930
Best MPH street tires 99.29

With 110 you should be in the 12's, I have run 13.85 @ 98.3 with a 1.93 60' on drag radials. I bet you run a faster mph when you run on the Hoosers
